Version 5 of Plots and charts

On the basis of the script I presented at A simple slipchart, I have worked out a small library for inclusion in Tklib.

The library provides simple plotting and charting facilities:

  • XY-plots
  • Stripcharts
  • Polar plots
  • Isometric plots (useful for small-scale geographic maps or drawings)
  • Barcharts (horizontal and vertical bars)
  • Timecharts (for timeschedules for instance)
  • Piecharts
  • 3D plots (showing functions f(x,y) or data on a grid)

The code is a bit large for the Wiki - some 2000 lines including the comments.

AM (16 april 2004) The library has been added to Tklib as a new module. Some improvements, especially details in the documentation are necessary, but it is now available via CVS.

RT, 25May2004 - can sombody post the required cvs command to fetch tklib. Tried extending/ substituting into the command shown for tcllib and no luck. Nor does tklib seem to be present in the nightly snaps of tcllib either. :-/

AK: tklib is a module in the tcllib project at SourceForge. This means that the CVS server and CVSROOT to use are the same as for tcllib, just the project name is changed:

 cvs -d:pserver:[email protected]:/cvsroot/tcllib co tklib

See

 http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/tcllib

for other modules in the same project.
